Cork/Dubai baggage free

ETIHAD Airways is spreading its net to the south and west of the country following a code-share agreement with Aer Arann to link with the airline’s flights from Dublin to Abu Dhabi and beyond.

The new deal is already in operation for travellers from Cork and Galway which will give greater access to 48 destinations around the world through Abu Dhabi.

Etihad clients will now be able to check-in with Aer Arann, get all their boarding cards and send their bags all the way through to their final destination. The airline operates seven flights a week from Dublin.
